Skerry Lane, Muston, Nottingham, NG13

A beautifully executed conversion of two period barns, combined to create one exceptional five bedroom detached family home retaining the external character expected of its heritage while internally delivering the comfort, efficiency and design of a contemporary home.

Completed in 2020, the accommodation extends to approximately 2,300 sq ft arranged across a single storey. The layout has been carefully designed to provide generous living proportions together with flexibility, allowing the home to adapt to a variety of lifestyle requirements.
The property offers up to five bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the versatility of lateral living enabling rooms to function equally well as reception rooms, workspace or guest accommodation.

Accommodation
A contemporary composite entrance door with side glazing opens into an initial entrance hall featuring exposed timbers, concealed lighting and tiled flooring. From here access is provided to a cloakroom, fitted with a modern WC and vanity basin alongside useful built in storage. The WC also lends access to generous loft storage that extends above the WC and principal bedroom.

The entrance hall naturally draws you to the impressive open plan kitchen lounge diner, a beautiful room of significant scale where exposed timber trusses and purlins rise into a vaulted ceiling, emphasising both height and volume. A contemporary solid fuel stove provides a focal point within the seating area, while dual aspect glazing and French doors draw in natural light and open directly onto the garden.

The kitchen is tastefully designed with an extensive range of charcoal cabinetry, with a central island incorporating a breakfast bar seating area and an inset ceramic sink. Integrated appliances within the kitchen include electric hob with extractor above, double oven, dishwasher and American style fridge freezer. The space comfortably accommodates defined dining and lounge zones, creating a natural hub for everyday living and entertaining.

An inner lobby leads to the principal bedroom suite, a substantial double bedroom with exposed trusses, dual aspect windows including an arched feature opening and oak effect flooring. The beautifully appointed en suite bathroom is fitted with a freestanding bath, WC and vanity basin beneath an illuminated mirror.

From the kitchen a glazed vestibule overlooks the rear garden and leads to a utility room, housing further cabinetry alongside laundry appliances and the central heating boiler.

A long inner corridor with windows to the garden leads to further accommodation including a second en suite bedroom, two additional double bedrooms and a versatile fifth bedroom currently utilised as a study. These rooms are served by a spacious family bathroom incorporating a double width shower enclosure, a fitted bath, vanity wash hand unit and a low level WC.

Underfloor heating runs throughout the property and, combined with double glazing and neutral decoration, creates a comfortable and cohesive interior that blends modern performance with the charm of the original structure.

Outside
The property occupies a discreet position accessed via a private driveway shared with only one neighbouring dwelling, offering a high degree of privacy. Secure gated entry opens onto a substantial gravel driveway providing extensive off road parking.

A three bay oak framed car port stands alongside an additional L shaped garage and workshop building providing covered parking for four vehicles in total. The workshop and garage offers excellent scope for alternative use including further accommodation or annexe potential, subject to the necessary consents.

To the rear, an elevated paved terrace links directly with the main living space, creating a natural extension for outdoor dining and entertaining. Steps lead onto a mainly lawned garden bordered by established planting and mature shrubs, enjoying a south westerly orientation. Additional gravelled areas, pathways and storage spaces sit to the sides of the property including the oil tank enclosure and log storage area.
